For many many months now the internet has been abuzz with rumors that Nintendo is planning to release a new “Pro” model of Switch to accompany the handheld-only Switch Lite that was released last year.
Today, we have a new rumor that was originally reported by Taipei-based Economic Daily News. According to their sources within the supply chain, a new, more powerful version of the Switch is planned to release early next year. The article also mentions that Switch memory chip supplier Macronix will be supplying parts for this model.
You can read a summary of the key details below as translated by Resetera user Plebc:
- The new Nintendo Switch will begin production later this year and be released early next year.
- Macronix one of the official Nintendo provider for game carts is expecting record sales next year.
- Macronix will be supplying parts to Nintendo for this new model with better image quality and “interactivity”.
Of course, like with all rumors of this nature we advice readers to take this information with a grain of salt. We will be sure to report back with official news should it become available.
